Gasoline 1 k Ton = 1.08 ktoe = 4.51872 x 10^16 joules.
Diesel Oil 1 k Ton =1 01 ktoe = 4.22584 x 10^16 joules
Dual purpose Kerosene
1 k Ton = 1.04 ktoe = 4.35136 x 10^16 joules
Fuel oil 1k Ton = 0.96 ktoe = 4.01664 x 10^16 joules
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)
1 k Ton = 1.08 ktoe = 4.51872 x 10^16 joules.
